In our research, as in our teaching, we place great emphasis on scientific excellence, practice orientation and close cooperation with industry. For example, we conduct commissioned basic and applied research for companies wishing to deploy large, highly complex and networked IT systems. HPI currently has nine - and will soon have ten - teams of scientists. They have an excellent work environment and are producing outstanding research results. Students also benefit from these results because all projects are integrated into the current teaching program. HPI is, of course, engaged in cooperation with other universities and research institutions, e.g. the renowned Stanford University in Palo Alto, USA.
Genau wie in der Lehre legen wir auch in der Forschung Wert auf wissenschaftliche Exzellenz, Praxisnähe und enge Kooperation mit der Industrie. Unternehmen beauftragen uns zum Beispiel damit, Grundlagen und Anwendungen für große, hochkomplexe und vernetzte IT-Systeme zu erforschen. Derzeit sind es neun, in naher Zukunft zehn Wissenschaftler-Teams, die am HPI unter hervorragenden Bedingungen arbeiten und besondere Forschungsleistungen erbringen. Weil alle Projekte in die aktuelle Lehre integriert werden, kommen diese Leistungen auch unseren Studenten zugute. Selbstverständlich bestehen auch Kooperationen mit anderen Universitäten und wissenschaftlichen Einrichtungen, zum Beispiel mit der renommierten Stanford University in Palo Alto, USA.
